Pregnant For My Bully

Amelia Forbes

I watched Dani and Ben slice vegetables in the kitchen silently. For once they weren’t bickering. But they weren’t talking to each other, or to me.

I gave a silent sigh. Ben had found out about everything from Dani when he came over. It took both Dani and Adrian to stop him from storming off to the Davenports. Afterwards he had screamed his lungs off at me, asking why I could keep something like that from him.

Then he’d cried a little. We’d all cried together. Nana included.

But there was still a sad kind of tension in the air. No one was talking to each other. They’d even agreed on what to make for dinner for once without arguing.

Adrian, Ben and Dani were a part of my small family now. They were constantly around-coming over early in the morning and leaving pretty late at night, although they slept over most nights.

And me? I was exhausted. I was still a bit scared from Nana’s dizzy spell from earlier. But I felt relieved too. The people I truly cared about and who cared about me knew everything now. They knew the truth, knew I was pregnant.

But they didn’t judge me or doubt me. They believed every single word I’d said. They didn’t think I was a slut. They cried with me, supported me. Always. And it was the best feeling. I didn’t have to hide anything from them again. Ever. And I knew that as long as I had them, everything would be okay. I’d be okay.

Absentmindedly, I smiled.

Getting up, I cleared my throat loudly. “I have an announcement!”

They paused and looked my way. “Well, hurry up. These veggies won’t chop themselves,” Dani snapped.

I felt like she was more hurt than the others. So I walked to to her and wrapped my arms in her torso.

“I. Love. You. Guys.” I enunciated each word, meaning it from the bottom of my heart.

Dani ignored me and kept on chopping.

“I’m so sorry,” I wailed, walking up to them one after the other and embracing them.

Dani turned around, knife in hand and faced me. “If you keep anything from me ever again, I’ll slice your boobs off.”Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Adrian choked on his soda, giving a loud belly laugh.

The laughter continued as Dani gave into my embrace, dragging Ben with her.

And we were okay.

After I’d slept outside in the rain last night, I knew dad had really kicked me out.

I was on my own.

He meant everything he’d said.

My body racked with sobs as I realized I had no one to call, no where to go. I was completely alone.

I breathed in sharply as a tear dropped into the cut on my cheek. I sobbed loudly as I remembered how I’d gotten it. The only possessions I carried was my phone and a wallet. And they’d been taken from me forcefully from me last night.

I was completely helpless.

And it was all my fault.

After a few minutes of crying in my damp clothes, I stumbled to my feet and began to think of my next move.
